the five you gave me,+the five in coins ,that would add up to $10
cause the five you took away they are not from the one you gave me

Wait!
You took away $5...but you did not specify from who. If you took it from me, I would have a total of $5 in coins.
HOWEVER...you did not specify who you took the $5 from, and therefore I assume you took the $5 from somewhere/someone else. Thus, I would end up with $10. I'd have the $5 you gave me the first time plus the $5 in coins.

Ten Dollars. $5 in coins and the $5 you took away. Because I know about this great idea....sounds like you might go for. ha-ha

Ten dollars, because at the second action "then took away $5" you didn't state that you specifically took the five you initially gave out to me. So it may read: you gave me five bucks, you took away five bucks [from a pile on the table] and then gave me another five in coins. arf!

surely still $5 in coins. arent you supposed to give $10 and get $5 note and $5 in coins, and do something wit that?

Depends on how much you had in the first place. If you have 100 dollars, then you have 105 dollars.
Or, if you said took away five, but didn't mean away from you, then you would end up with ten dollars more then you began with.

i would have $5 in coins plus however much i already had, and why would you want to keep swapping the money over? good little 'trick' (for want of a better word) though!

whatever money I had on me already - plus the £5 you'd just given back to me - not clever at all no
